A standing wave is composed of nodes (points of no movement) and antinodes (points of maximum movement). It also has a wavelength, which is the distance between two consecutive points in phase (either a node or antinode). Standing waves are formed by the interference of two waves with the same frequency traveling in opposite directions.
In a uninodal (single-node standing wave) wave, there is one node and two anti-nodes.
When a standing wave interacts with another wave of the same frequency, it can either reinforce the standing wave through constructive interference, resulting in increased amplitude at certain points, or cancel out parts of the standing wave through destructive interference, resulting in nodes with reduced or zero amplitude. The specific result depends on the relative phase of the two waves at each point of interaction.
The amplitude of a standing wave is the maximum displacement of a point on the wave from its equilibrium position. It represents the height of the wave at its peak.
The result is a standing wave. Standing waves are created by the interference of two waves of the same frequency traveling in opposite directions and have points along the medium that appear to be vibrating in place.
The amplitude of the standing wave shown is the maximum displacement of a point on the wave from its equilibrium position.

When an incoming wave combines with a reflected wave in such a way that the combined wave appears to be standing still the result is a standing still wave.
standing wave!
standing wave :)
A standing wave can tell you about the resonant frequencies of a system. It is formed when a wave reflects back on itself and interferes constructively or destructively. The nodes and antinodes of a standing wave provide information about the wavelength and frequency of the wave.

A standing wave requires a relative motion of the medium at the same velocity of the wave
